When you set rtexprvalue to true for an attribute, it means you can
use a JSP expression (<%= ... %>) as the value, not an action element.
That's why this case fails.

There are two problems with this case:
1) You're using invalid syntax for an expression. An expression starts
with <%=, not <%.
2) You're using double quotes both to enclose the attribute value and
as a string delimiter *in* the value. This confuses the container.
Use single quotes to enclose the value or escape the double quotes
in the value.
This should work:
<dbexpresso:setCtrlParam name="profileController"
property="nextPage"
value='<%= request.getContextPath + "/emis/user-profile-success.jsp" %>'
/>
But a better approach, IMHO, is to let your custom action deal with
adding the context path so you don't need to use this complex syntax.
